【Chapter 045】Cultivation Qualification
"Then when should I start practicing?" Ye Yisheng asked impatiently. As long as he becomes a cultivator, he will have the opportunity to find someone to dig out his spiritual roots in the future.
"Don't worry, I'll check your body again." Nangong Chenyu motioned Ye Yishen to stretch out his hand.
Ye Yisheng immediately did as he was told and caught a glimpse of a bony hand resting on his wrist. The slightly cool touch made him feel a little strange.
Nangong Chenyu was about to input spiritual energy into the meridians in Ye Yisheng's wrist when he discovered that the other party's pulse was beating particularly fast. He frowned slightly and whispered soothingly.
"Relax, don't be nervous."
"I'm not nervous." But his heart was beating a little fast, completely out of his control.
Nangong Chenyu said speechlessly: "But you don't act like you're not nervous at all."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
He really wasn't nervous.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his pounding heart.
"It's okay." Only after feeling that Ye Yishen's pulse had returned to normal did Nangong Chenyu inject spiritual energy into Ye Yishen's body. The spiritual consciousness followed the spiritual energy through the eight extraordinary meridians and entered Ye Yishen’s dantian.
Soon, the situation in Ye Yisheng’s dantian appeared in Nangong Chenyu’s mind. The spiritual root that had just sprouted a few days ago has now grown to half the size of a normal spiritual root.
This was beyond Nangong Chenyu's expectations.
He originally thought that Ye Yishen had to cultivate his spiritual roots before he could practice, and estimated that it would take at least a year and a half.
Now Ye Yishen can practice directly.
After Ye Yishen draws the energy into his body, the undeveloped spiritual root will be nourished by the spiritual energy. I believe it won't take long to fully grow back.
That is... why are Ye Yisheng's spiritual roots different from the ten spiritual roots he has seen?
After trying hard to recall, Nangong Chenyu finally remembered what his master said when he first entered the Sword Sect, that in addition to the five elements spiritual roots and five kinds of mutated spiritual roots, there are three kinds of spiritual roots that are almost non-existent.
Seeing Nangong Chenyu finished the examination, Ye Yisheng immediately asked: "How is my health now?"
"You can practice immediately."
"Then I will start practicing after we return home." Ye Yishen has already decided to spend half a day every day to deal with trivial matters, and use the rest of the time for practice.
Seeing him so happy, Nangong Chenyu hid the smile in his eyes and poured cold water on him: "Cultivation is to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth for your own use, and there is no spiritual energy in the Mortal Continent."
Ye Yisheng: “…”
So he can’t practice for the time being?
Your mood can be as simple as a thought: heaven or hell.
Nangong Chenyu continued, "In addition to absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, you can also absorb spiritual stones, various foods containing spiritual energy, elixirs, and natural treasures to practice."
"Spiritual energy is divided into those without attributes and those with attributes. Spiritual energy without attributes is suitable for all cultivators to absorb, while spiritual energy with attributes is only suitable for cultivators with spiritual roots of corresponding attributes to absorb."
After a brief pause, he pointed to the black jade in the box beside him and said, "These black jades contain natural treasures that can help cultivators improve their cultivation."
Ye Yisheng: “…” He had already sent all the things out, there was no need to tell him at all!
Seeing Ye Yisheng's expression changing, the smile in Nangong Chenyu's eyes deepened. He changed the subject: "But you are lucky, there is spiritual energy in this small space."
"So I can practice here?" Ye Yisheng asked.
Nangong Chenyu nodded: "Not bad."
When Ye Yishen came here, he thought he would go back soon, so he didn't make any plans. If he wants to practice here, he has to go back first.
"I plan to let Huo Zichen remove the Gu for Yun Cheng in two days." The implication is that he has to go back and cannot stay here any longer.
After thinking for a while, Nangong Chenyu made a decision: "Then let's stay here for two days and go back after two days. You can use these two days to see if you can draw the Qi into your body."
"Drawing Qi into the body?" Ye Yisheng had a question mark on his forehead.
Nangong Chenyu said slowly: "The so-called drawing qi into the body means absorbing the attribute spiritual energy corresponding to your spiritual roots in the heaven and earth into the Dantian. Only after drawing qi into the body can you start practicing."
"The time it takes to draw Qi into the body depends on one's talent, cultivation aptitude, comprehension, and affinity with spiritual energy. The time it takes to draw Qi into the body is different for everyone. Some people only need a quarter of an hour to draw Qi into the body; some people need three days; some people need a month or two to draw Qi into the body; and some people may never be able to draw Qi into the body in their entire lives."
Ye Yisheng seemed to understand what he said, but not quite.
"Then how long did it take you to draw the energy into your body?"
"A quarter of an hour..." After a pause, Nangong Chenyu continued, "Less than."
Ye Yisheng: The pressure is a bit high.
What would Nangong Chenyu think of him if he failed to draw Qi into his body for two days?
Do you think he is stupid?
"Then... what is my aptitude for cultivation?" After asking this, he seemed calm in front of him, but he was very nervous in his heart.
Nangong Chenyu patiently explained: "The so-called cultivation aptitude refers to the spiritual roots."
"There are ten common spiritual roots: the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth; and the mutant spiritual roots of wind, thunder, ice, darkness, and light. In addition, there are three spiritual roots that should not exist: the sun, the moon, and the stars."
"Your spiritual root is transparent white, and it should be one of the three spiritual roots of the sun, moon, and star. These three spiritual roots are usually inherited from one's parents, but few people can actually inherit them."
What Nangong Chenyu didn’t say was that if Ye Yisheng’s original spiritual root had not been dug out, he might not have grown the spiritual root he has now.
Ye Yisheng asked again: "What kind of cultivation qualifications are the three spiritual roots of sun, moon and star?"
Nangong Chenyu went on to explain: "Spiritual roots are divided into pseudo spiritual roots, true spiritual roots, heavenly spiritual roots, mutant spiritual roots, super spiritual roots, chaotic spiritual roots, and fusion spiritual roots."
"Pseudo spiritual roots are also called mixed spiritual roots. They have four or five attributes, and the purity of each attribute does not exceed 50%. This kind of spiritual root is incomplete and has the slowest cultivation speed."
"True spiritual roots: spiritual roots with two or three attributes, the purity of each attribute is more than 90%, and the purity value is the same. The cultivation speed is much faster."
"Heavenly Spiritual Root: A single spiritual root with only one attribute, with a spiritual root purity of more than 95%. The cultivation speed is several times faster than that of ordinary spiritual roots, and there is no bottleneck in forming a pill."
"Mutated spiritual roots: The cultivation speed is no less than that of natural spiritual roots."
"Super spiritual roots: divided into three types: sun, moon, and star. Sun and moon spiritual roots can absorb the essence of the sun and moon to cultivate; star spiritual roots can absorb the power of the stars to cultivate. The cultivation speed of these three spiritual roots is dozens of times that of mutant spiritual roots."
"Chaos Spiritual Root: A spiritual root with all attributes. No matter which attribute you cultivate, the other attributes will increase accordingly. The speed of cultivation far exceeds that of the Heavenly Spiritual Root."
"Fusion Spiritual Root: It can integrate all things, the yin and yang energy, the five elements spirit, as long as it is absorbed properly, it can all be used for its own benefit."
"Among them, the majority have false spiritual roots, followed by true spiritual roots, and then heavenly spiritual roots and mutant spiritual roots. Chaotic spiritual roots appear occasionally, and super spiritual roots are rarely seen in ten thousand years."
"In addition, the speed of cultivation is not only determined by spiritual roots, but also by cultivation aptitude other than spiritual roots."
"The so-called cultivation qualifications other than spiritual roots generally refer to special physiques. For example, some people have average spiritual roots, but they have some special physiques. Then their cultivation speed may exceed that of people with better spiritual roots."
"Also, cultivation cannot be separated from cultivation resources. Some people have excellent cultivation qualifications, but without cultivation resources, it is useless."
"Ye Yisheng, you have to remember this. No matter who asks you what your spiritual roots are in the future, you must not tell them. Also, don't let anyone check your body."
At this point, Nangong Chenyu raised his hand and swore: "I, Nangong Chenyu, swear to the heavens here that I will never tell anyone in any way what Ye Yisheng's spiritual roots are. If you break this oath, the heavens will thunder and lightning."
If Ye Yisheng had not grown up yet, he would have let others know what his spiritual roots were. It is estimated that he will face the danger of having his spiritual roots dug out again.
Ye Yisheng was confused as he listened, when suddenly Nangong Chenyu's words turned into an oath. Before he could react, he saw a beam of light falling from the sky and landing on Nangong Chenyu.
His head is full of question marks.
Nangong Chenyu explained to Ye Yisheng: "A cultivator cannot swear an oath casually. Once the oath is made, it will bring about the rules of heaven and earth. If you break the oath in the future, you will be punished accordingly."
After listening to Nangong Chenyu's story, Ye Yishen realized how serious it was for a cultivator to swear an oath.
"Don't swear anymore. I believe you."
"Okay." Nangong Chenyu agreed with a smile.
Originally, Ye Yishen was very curious about what kind of spiritual roots Nangong Chenyu had, but now even if he was curious, he would not ask.
Nangong Chenyu took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a pill and handed it to Ye Yisheng: "This is a top-grade marrow cleansing pill, which can cleanse the essence and marrow and eliminate impurities in the body."
It looked very expensive, and Ye Yisheng hesitated whether to accept it.
Seeing him like this, Nangong Chenyu directly ordered: "Open your mouth."
Ye Yisheng did as he was told subconsciously: "Huh?"
Nangong Chenyu took the opportunity to feed the pill in his hand into Ye Yisheng's mouth, and kindly reminded him: "It may be a little painful to cleanse the essence and marrow. In addition, I saw a stream next to the bamboo forest. You'd better go to the stream now. Then take off all your clothes and soak in the stream."
Ye Yishen didn't dare to delay and quickly ran out the door.
Nangong Chenyu went behind the bamboo house to pick fruit. After picking all the fruits in this space, he walked around the space again.
An extremely high-quality spiritual vein was unexpectedly discovered underground in the center of this space. Unfortunately, it is an extremely high-quality spiritual vein that is almost exhausted.
Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
After experiencing the pain of cleansing his essence and marrow, Ye Yishen walked into the bamboo house with a body full of water. At a glance, he saw Nangong Chen sitting at the table eating pastries.
"Where did you get the cakes?"
When they came here just now, they all had nothing.
"I have a magic storage device. Yesterday you said you would take me to a place, so I asked the kitchen to prepare some food."
As he spoke, Nangong Chenyu took out two more plates of snacks and motioned Ye Yisheng to sit down: "Eat quickly. When you are full, I will tell you the method of drawing Qi into the body."
Ye Yishen was really hungry, so he didn't bother to be polite with Nangong Chenyu.
A quarter of an hour later.
After telling Ye Yishen the technique of drawing Qi into the body, Nangong Chenyu sat cross-legged on the ground. Then he took out a cushion and placed it in front of him, waving at Ye Yisheng: "Ye Yisheng, sit cross-legged on this cushion like me."
